Abstract
A method for adjusting image geometry in a system having a video display monitor, an input device and an input device pointer visually representing the position of the input device on the video display monitor comprises the steps of generating an image geometry adjustment screen, hiding the input device pointer and generating a simulated input device pointer, using positional information received to accordingly adjust the image geometry, and restoring the input device pointer to the image geometry adjustment screen.
